The featured student this week is Ryan Durkee, a Mechanical Engineering major from St. Charles, Missouri, who worked for Southern Company in Birmingham, Alabama.

During his rotation, Durkee worked in Resource Planning, where he worked in projects related to finding the optimal generation reserve margin as well as the integrated resource plan for the next 30 years.
